I didn't realize I have cronies, but OK. You're very much welcome to discuss Punjabi culture, broader than bhangra, on the forum. Just start a thread-- no one's censoring you.
I don't think anyone here is condescending to non-native English speakers, and everyone is supportive of people...
Before launching this, a bunch of us were talking on the facebook group (join here if you're not in it yet) about new initiatives that could kickstart activity in the bhangra community. Each of these needs people to actually make it happen. Chime in below if you have another idea, or what you...
I'm working on fixing this. The URLs are just like "thread.28123" they are like "main-bhangra-discussion/bhangra-blowout-registration-!!!" so I'm working on the script with some help from a xenforo expert.
Welcome to the new BTF! Many of you have tried it out recently as I ran migration tests. All (280,000) posts have made the jump over to our new forum system. What are the main reasons we switched over?
- Log in with Facebook, and overall tighter Facebook integration. Turns out this whole...

I'm trying out a few things that could be really helpful for discussion and team engagement on FB-- i'd love to include you and get your opinion on it. Thanks

Hey we are introducing Crossroads of Bhangra, a new competition
Introduces new competition, unattached to the negative stigma of Boiler Bhangra
We're a new competition held at Indiana University, but have no...
Probably. Older members have more, oldest members have most :D
It's not trivial and I can't do this for everyone but I grabbed the post dates for Faizan, Kinnell, and myself. You can see we all posted a lot in 2008-2012 (Kinnell by far the most), and Faizan and I petered out in 2012. But for...
I think I've brought it up before, but have people thought about doing a bhangra fantasy league? Prior to each competition, you'd select three teams you think will place 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. You get points for calling it correctly, and over the course of a season, you accumulate points and the...
Nice! This is a great introduction to the rise of bhangra at US colleges and I hope it spreads more awareness. I'm already seeing it all over my facebook news feed. Well done, Nadya
